Ok, Dumb question.  How would you do that?  I assume you would not 
uninstall the daemon (in case you changed your mind later), but have it 
not start . . . right?  So it then comes out of some startup script?  
Then, when you have started the ubuntu-desktop using startx and now you 
want to close it again, what then?

Thanks this discussion fits very well with a project I am contemplating.
